Lyrics
I remember it like it was yesterday, tho? a thousand suns have passed
when the men came to my village under a strange sign
They turned our women into whores, our children into slaves
With them came a man who shouted: ?By this book you?ll all be saved!?
Now with the passage of time, belief in the ancient gods fades
Corrupted by the followers of dollar and cross
The people?s minds are not their own, heritage taken when seeds are sown.
You can?t even pronounce your name!
Have you no idea from whence you came?
Have you forgotten why your forefathers fought and died?
?Twas not for money, or the blessings of a man who lied!
Ideals of honor that lurk deep in every beating heart
are under attack, by the children of the lie--that the church has spoken.
FOR EVERY MAID
FOR EVERY CHILD
FOR EVERY WARRIOR
WHOSE WIFE HAS BEEN DEFILED
IF IT?S A WAR THEY WANT, WE?LL KILL THEM ALL!
UNDER THE SIGN OF THE HORNED ONE THEY?LL FALL
